I agree, it does sound like a racket to me as well. Someone contacted by email who had read this thread & I found out there was another club in my area. The folks at this club sound great without a silly no Avistar rule. Before I found out about this club though, I went ahead & ordered the Tower Hobbies Trainer, hope I don't regret it. Got a good deal I think, I posted about it before this post. Anyway, I figured that after I learn to fly then I can sink my teeth into an ARF & get some building experience & get me a plane with the wing type of the Avistar & just transfer the motor etc.
Thanks to everyone for all your help.You are a great group & I appreciate your being here.

I just spotted this post.
Paula,
you'll be happy with that trainer and it loops and rolls very well and with full throttle you can bank it 180* and do a nice 360 turn.
You just may need a touch of rudder to keep the nose up.
The Airstrike has a bigger and thicker (more drag) wing and the same size and make engine but they say it will do 60+MPH so you may have a nice zippy trainer to play with.
